Abstract
A pressing apparatus includes a presser including a second member configured to come close to or separate from a first member; an elastic member configured to apply force in a direction in which the second member comes close to the first member to the presser, the elastic member being mounted on the presser; an actuator configured to apply force in a direction in which the second member comes close to the first member or separates from the first member to the presser, the actuator being mounted on the presser; an acquirer configured to acquire a parameter containing at least one of a position of the presser, a speed of the presser, and force applied by the actuator to the presser; and a controller configured to feedback-control the actuator based on the parameter.
